I have had my outlaw for a good six month now and nothing has broken.Its the brushed version and I run it on 2s.It gets launched off ramps and so far it's been great.All I have done to it is add the Ali motor mount,Ali rear stand offs and the chassi brace mod.I bought a carbon chassi for it when I bought it but so far I haven't had to fit it.For the money you can't go wrong in my opinion.Maybe if it was brushless it would be a different story.
